Throughout the 2017-2018 academic year, our projection was to give out 2,500 fully-stocked backpacks to meet the needs of students throughout the South Coast communities living in shelters and transitional housing. The demand exceeded 2,850 and we delivered thanks to the generosity of individuals, businesses, civic and faith-based organizations. We are grateful to those listed here!

We promise to deliver to even more children and youth this upcoming school year and expect the demand will grow.

You can help restock our shelves by staging a supply drive asking for items listed below. Kids Helping Kids is a wonderful way to teach your children about the needs of their peers - and we have many ways to get kids involved.
